Sickness and Dates
Under The Bad Boys Spell
Selenaâs P.O.V
I woke up feeling so comfortable. I knew this wasnât my bed because it smelt really manly and I donât recall changing my room. I looked around and remembered last night. I threw myself back on the pillows with embarrassment. For crying out loud the guy has a girlfriend.
I felt so stupid. I kicked the covers off me and closed my eyes.
âOh youâre upâ I opened my eyes to see Adam standing near the bed. His eyes were looking at something else. I followed them and saw that his shirt had ridden up to my hips. I quickly covered my self and cleared my throat catching his attention.
âDo you feel betterâ I nodded my head and looked anywhere but him my eyes fell on his clock.
âITS 10 OâCLOCK I MISSED SCHOOL WHY DIDNâT YOU WAKE ME UPâ I jumped out of the bed and tried to run out of his window. I canât believe I missed school.
Before I even made it to the window I felt Adam lift me up and carry me back. I struggled against him.
âAdam put me down. I need to go to school...let..me..goâ
âNot letting you goâ He threw me on his bed and hovered above me.
âYou are sick, so you arenât going schoolâ
âBu-â Adam shut me up by putting his finger on my lips.
âNot point arguing because your not winning this oneâ I nodded my head at him and I couldnât break eye contact with him.
It was just something about him that made me not want to look away. Before any of us could say anything his phone started to ring. He looked pissed when he saw his phone.
After he left the room I closed my eyes and let sleep take over me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~â¡~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Right now I was in my own house. After I had woken up Adam wasnât anywhere to be seen in the house so I went home.
I changed my clothes and walked downstairs to sit next to Ben. I leaned my head against his arm.
âYou still feeling illâ I nodded my head.
âHere have someâ Ben handed me a cup of hot chocolate and I smiled at him because he knew how much I loved it.
âThank youâ
We both were watching TV when John came down the stairs dressed all nice.
âMan where are you going dressed nice, is it a funeralâ Ben sniggered and I lightly hit him from the side.
âShut the fuck up unless you want me to break your faceâ
âOkay cut it out boysâ
âSooooo John where are you going dressed all niceâ I winked at him and I could see the slight pink on his cheeks.
âAwww is the wittle boy blushingâ Ben went to squeeze his cheeks and John slapped his hand away.
âThe fuck manâ
âI have a dateâ Me and Ben both looked at each other with smirks.
âAwww heâs growing up already my Johnny pooâ I squeezed his cheeks while Ben started to laugh loudly.
He pushed my hands away and raised an eyebrow at me.
âThought you were sickâ
âAh ah donât change the subject here. Tell us who the lucky girl isâ
âYeah who is the unlucky girlâ Ben sniggered and I smacked him.
âAnyways please who is sheâ
âWell the other day I was walking by and I saw some guy harass her and she was shouting for help. So I beat the guy up. One thing led to another and here we areâ
I had huge smile on my fave. John rarely went out on a date he just brought the girls home like the rest of the boys.
âAwww John thatâs so sweet. Good luck for tonightâ I hugged him and moved back quick because I didnât want to get him sick.
âWell letâs hope you get some tonightâ Both of them laughed making me feel sick.
âYou guys are disgustingâ I rolled my eyes at them and went to my room to rest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~â¡~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I had taken a few days of school because I got sick and I spread it to the boys too. So we were all sick.
Today was Friday and I was feeling much better but I couldnât say the same for my brothers.
âYou...are responsible for all thisâ Blake had the cute sick voice.
âAwww Iâm sorry well atleast on the bright side you guys sound cuteâ Blake scowled at me and put his head on the kitchen counter . They argued how they didnât sound cute. Boys.
âACHOOOâ
âAAAAAHâ Benâs sneeze scared us all but it made Josh scream like a girl. I started to laugh so hard I had tears in my eyes.
âIts not funnyâ Josh gave me a dirty look and turned away.
Ben walked towards me and I was slightly scared since he had a creepy smile on his face.
I moved back because I knew my brother and that smile meant he was up to something.
âUmm..what are you doingâ he gave me an evil grin and held out his arms.
âGive your big brother a hugâ He sneezed loudly and I ran.
âNot in this lifetimeâ I ran and Ben grabbed me from the back.
âBen noooooooo...I just started to feel betterâ I bit his arm and made a run for the door.
I grabbed my bag and headed for school.
I walked to school and I dressed warm since I was still a bit sick and I wanted to feel comfortable. I made it in time for the bell for my first lesson.
I was surprised when I was alone in all my lessons. Literally none of the boys or Giselle were to be seen. Ignoring that I carried on with my work. At lunch I was losing my energy to walk so I was dragging myself to the cafeteria.
I walked in to see everyone at the table. I went and sat next to Ash and Jade.
âHey guysâ I dropped my bag on the table and leaned my head on Ash who put his arm around.
âYou still feeling illâ
âNot as much but Iâm betterâ He nodded his head and carried on talking to the guys about their game.
âYou guys Iâm so frickin excited for the competition we are so beating their assesâ I laughed but it turned into a cough and everyone stared at me.
I grabbed Ashâs drink and literally downed it so quick that it was down my neck and top. Everyone started to laugh at me but one person didnât seem to find it funny.
I looked at Adam and he had a weird look on his face. His eyes were on my neck I quickly wiped my neck and gave him a dirty look.
âTake a picture Adam it will last longerâ I smirked at him.
âDonât think I want to, my phone will probably crackâ He gave me a grin and it annoyed the hell out of me.
I threw Jadeâs fries at him which he caught with his mouth.
âI hate youâ
âNo you donâtâ
âYes I doâ I slammed my hands on the table and leaned closer to him since he was across the table.
âOh no you dontâ he came close to my face and my face started to heat up because I remembered what happend the other day.
âYes. I doâ
âWell your red cheeks are telling me a diffrent storyâ we both stared at each other with a challenging stare.
âIf you two are done with your gross ass flirting itâs time to go to lessonâ Ash pulled me away and I blushed looking down.
âEww he wishes I flirted with himâ Adam raised an eyebrow at me while putting on his jacket.
âWell ya canât flirt with him Lena your mineâ Ash lifted me on his shoulder and ran. I screamed as we left the cafeteria but I didnât miss the pissed look on Adamâs face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~â¡~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The last few lessons were a blur because all we did was laugh and talk about the competition.
On the way home I walked it with Giselle. Who currently was explaining to me why she wasnât in class in the morning.
âSo one of Xavierâs friends who was helping him keep our area safe was attacked last night by the demons. So by the looks of it he might not make itâ
âThis is all my fault. People are getting hurt because of me.â
âNo it isnât. Donât blame yourselfâ Giselle smiled at me but I couldnât smile back this was not fair whatever was happening sucked and I hated it.
I walked into Giselleâs house and followed her up to the room where they had kept Xavierâs friend.
When I walked into the room I felt like someone had thrown a bucket of cold water on me. Reality hit me like a truck.
What I saw before me was Adam hugging Regina from the back. Regina looked at me with a smug look on her face and I tried to shake it off as I looked as Xavierâs friend on the bed.
âIs he going to be okâ Giselle walked towards the bed while I stayed glued in my spot.
âYeah he should be. I did everything I could and itâs drained all my energyâ She leaned head further on to Adam. He didnât even bother giving me a second look.
Someone from behind me pushed me forward but quickly grabbed me so I donât fall on my face.
âOh sorryâ I turned to see Xavier.
âUmm...its fineâ I moved aside and let him go near his friend.
Everyone started to talk amongst themselves and I felt kind of out of place so I left.
Being in that room reminded me that even though Iâm a wizard. Iâll never be like them.
I threw my stuff on my bed and changed into something more comfortable.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~â¡~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was sitting on my rooftop/balcony just staring at the stars. Honestly I feel like sometimes we donât appreciate the beauty of the universe. The stars reminding us that even in a pitch black night there is always light.
Which signified hope. I really donât want to let anyone down. I want to lift this curse and help people but all of it is so scary.
âWhat are we looking atâ I jumped at the sound of Xavierâs voice.
âYou scared meâ I had a hand on my heart which was beating pretty fast
While Xavier had a grin on his face.
âIâm sorryâ
âIts fineâ I smiled at him and carried on looking at the stars.
âNo I meant for what happend the other day. I shouldnât have left you hanging like thatâ
âXavier itâs fine. I was pretty upset at first but then I let it go. But please next time donât hit anyone because of me. Itâs really not worthâ
âIf someone disrepects you in my presence I canât promise that they will go unharmed. And donât ever say your not worth itâ Xavier was looking at me with a intense gaze and I found myself getting lost in his eyes. They were such a beautiful colour.
They looked like a cool calming colour but at the same time they were so intense and full of emotion that youâd get lost.
âMove over before I fallâ I broke eye contact laughing and scooted over so he could sit. He moved really close to me that I could feel his body heat warning me up.
âXavier. Iâm scared.â I turned to him and he looked at me. I felt stupid for saying that but I feel like he would understand me.
âWhy ?.â
âI donât know. Everyone is counting on me. Your friend got hurt because of me. Iâm being put into a world I have no idea about. My brothers want to move back there but I donât. All of this is too muchâ
I put my head down because I felt stupid. I felt Xavier put his arm around me.
âWhy do you keep blaming yourself. Itâs not your fault if someone got hurt. As much as itâs your battle itâs our too. I understand that your reality is different to ours but you shouldnât put something off because your scared. If you donât like our world you can always come back hereâ
We didnât talk much after that. I put my head on his shoulder because I was starting to feel tired. I didnât want to sleep but I knew that Iâd be safe because Xavier was here.
âDonât sleep on meâ I heard Xavier talk with amusement in his tone.
âCanât promiseâ I closed my eyes and Xavier pulled me closer.
